End PARCC testing in Maryland.

We believe PARCC testing to be an invalid measure of student learning and school performance, unjust to children and teachers, and detrimental to public education.

WHY DO WE REJECT PARCC TESTING?

The PARCC Test is Killing Public Education

Great schools are created through the development of collaborative, innovative, risk-taking professional environments where a culture of partnership, trust and aspiration prevails. Instead, schools and educators are mistrusted and forced to implement PARCC testing or be punished – a theory of action already disproven after the first ten years of high-stakes standardized testing.
